Observing the following precautions can prevent injuries, equipment failures and
shutdowns.
•
Never assume that the power cord is disconnected from a power source. Always
check first.
•
Room temperature might not be sufficient to keep equipment at acceptable
temperatures without an additional circulation system. Ensure that the room in
which you operate the NetScreen-5XT has adequate air circulation.
•
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•
Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors,
ungrounded power extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety
grounds.
